Am I a Let Down, or are You?

Well I fell dreadfully ill sometime in late October.. I almost lost my voice =P
Anyway I had a very tough time during the fortnight I was sick..
Cos my boss was sick too..
And the comments she made were even worse than any of those she's said already..
She kept picking on me and I just felt so miserable..

Somehow I shouldered on sick and demoralised until first week November..
One morning she hauled me into her room to lecture me about 'my attitude'..
As usual she raved on about how big a let-down I turned out to be..
And like usual I silently let her vent her anger..

Then she said "I've been tryin to understand you.. I don't wana understand you anymore.. I can't be bothered.. There's no point quarrelling about it all the time"

This was where I spoke up to say "I've never quarrelled with you, I don't see the point in quarrelling anyway."
Perhaps she realised it was true so she changed the subject.

She said "I hired you to help me, not make things worse for me!.............You go and think about it! I'm sick and tired! You go and decide if you're staying in this firm!"

I was shocked and really fuming..
After clearing the humongus mess/backlog/junk built up by Daud and Dahlia this was the thanks I got..

I left her room in tears that morning..
Later in the afternoon when I placed files on her desk,
She asked me sarcastically "So when are you leaving?"

Not wanting to say something stupid in anger,
I told her that I'll think about it and let her know by the end of the week..

Yesterday I submitted my Resignation Letter..
I pretended the whole episode did not happen and I wanted to leave because of my Studies..
I work til the end of January 2004..
It's a tremendous relief to be able to see light at the end of the tunnel..
